  • Description

    Hello there! We are a British couple Jack (27) and Xena (26) on a year-long trip across the Atlantic by sail, through the Caribbean and Central America, and up into California where we’ll spend the growing season in 2026.

    We are looking for aligned hosts who are looking for an exchange with two skilled, committed, and gentle volunteers. Jack is a community food growing organiser at home, supporting residents without gardens to start their own community gardens. Xena is a visual anthropologist and documentary filmmaker focusing on multi-species anthropology.

    We both have spent a long time on Workaway and WWOOF-style projects in the past and are committed to a hearty exchange, good housekeeping, and honesty!
